Any benefits to changing the tooth angle on a .325 ? Instead of switching to 3/8 ?

 

I'm sure you can get some improvement in cut speed by playing with angles on it.

 

I had a 026 pro that was ported I think would have been faster with 63PS. .325 was faster then 3/8 on it too.

Just a stihl thing.

 

I'm joking.

I know why on my stihl didnt like full 3/8. Just saying if they aint got balls they aint got balls.

 

Here is the 026 on 3/8. IMO this is slow slow slow.

Running stihl 3/8 RS round chisel out of the box with 7T. Poplar wood for testing.

Have to be light handed running 3/8 on this 026 IMO, I would prefer .325 on this saw.

 

Same log, same chain bar and my slower #2 066 that is ported and running 8T.

 

Testing rims on a woods ported 084 8T - 11T to see where it falls off in small wood cant racing.

 

10T

 

Partner 5000 ported running a little lean in testing. If you know what to listen for.

 

Here was my other dozerdan woods ported 084 with 9T testing with new owner buying it that day.

 

My Marcel Vincent ported 166 and just 11T testing after I rebuilt it from hanging a ring. Running it pig fat for cuts. Piston is backwards in this saw for a reason. So dont let folks say it cant be done.

 

My old 7901 woods ported with Dave Nieger finger ports. Back in back ground is where I lost my barn in storm.
